A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Rosie - eighteen, beautiful and vivacious - is in love with Watt Bevan, the manager of the famous Mainwaring Pottery where her mother Pearl works. But Watt is mourning the loss of a former lover, and when Pearl falls ill and Watt becomes the protector of the family Rosie realises that her feelings for him are not returned. Meanwhile Llinos Mainwaring's romantic marriage to Joe, the American Indian who stole her heart all those years ago, seems to be in trouble, and Llinos - hurt and bewildered by Joe's apparent neglect - finds the ownership of her family pottery to be increasingly burdensome.

Into all these lives intrudes the troublesome Mrs Sparks, voluptuous wife of the local bank manager. Her scheming involves Llinos, Joe and Watt - and when she enmeshes the innocent Rosie in her net the whole future of the pottery looks threatened.

In this powerful new novel Iris Grower continues the romantic story of the South Wales potteries, begun in Firebird and Dream Catcher.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Rosie, sixteen, beautiful and vivacious, is in love with Watt Bevan, the manager of the famous Mainwaring Pottery. Content to adore him from afar, when he comes to her seventeenth birthday party she realizes that he is the only man she will ever love. But Watt, unaware of her feelings, is becoming increasingly drawn into the problems facing pottery owner Llinos Mainwaring, whose romantic marriage to Joe, the American Indian who stole her heart all those years ago, now seems in trouble. Before long, Rosie discovers that she is changed for ever from the innocent girl she once was, as she becomes involved with a man whose love she is destined never to have. A story of human love and conflict that spans two continents.
